i have tried removing the lines that it says that it is having errors on and i could'nt get it to work. also I have try uninstalling the dhcp server. using yast to generate a new config file

any ideas?
thanks

I'd remove these lines, as they are redundant for most non-corporate users (they are there for isolating different departments). The netmask is important but because you don't have more than one, it's choking. (A netmask is just a "screen" isolating your private addresses from those on the internet, allowing many more locations than the current addressing scheme would allow on it's own, if every PC had to have a separate address.)

subnet netmask {
default-lease-time 14400;
max-lease-time 172800;
}
subnet netmask {
default-lease-time 14400;
max-lease-time 172800;
}

I took out the lines:
subnet netmask {
default-lease-time 14400;
max-lease-time 172800;
}
subnet netmask {
default-lease-time 14400;
max-lease-time 172800;
}
I still am getting the error message... my dhcp.conf is in /var/lib/dhcp/etc am I missing something ?
